🖹 Description
- Relay output warning for power failure and port break alarm
- Broadcast storm protection
- -40 to 75°C operating temperature range (-T models)
The EDS-316 Ethernet switches provide an economical solution for your industrial Ethernet connections. These 16-port switches come with a built-in relay warning function that alerts network engineers when power failures or port breaks occur. In addition, the switches are designed for harsh industrial environments, such as the hazardous locations defined by the Class 1 Div. 2 and ATEX Zone 2 standards.
The switches comply with FCC, UL, and CE standards and support either a standard operating temperature range of -10 to 60°C or a wide operating temperature range of -40 to 75°C. All switches in the series undergo a 100% burn-in test to ensure that they fulfill the special needs of industrial automation control applications. The EDS-316 switches can be installed easily on a DIN rail or in a distribution box.
Industrial Ethernet Switch – Moxa EDS-316 V2.0
This device is an industrial Ethernet switch, specifically the EDS-316 V2.0 from Moxa.
What it is
A high-capacity industrial Ethernet switch (network hub) designed to connect multiple devices in automation and control systems.
With 16 ports, it is ideal for larger networks where many devices need to communicate reliably.
Built for continuous operation in demanding industrial environments.
What it does
- Links devices such as:
o PLCs
o HMIs
o SCADA computers
o Sensors and controllers
o Industrial PCs and gateways - Enables:
o Data communication over a LAN
o Real-time control and monitoring
o Integration of multiple systems into one network
Acts as the central communication backbone of the system.
Key features
- 16 Ethernet ports (RJ45)
• Industrial-grade metal housing
• DIN-rail mounting for panel installation
• Terminal power input (industrial supply)
• Designed for harsh environments:
o Wide temperature tolerance
o Resistance to vibration and EMI
• Unmanaged switch → no configuration required
How it works (simple)
- Devices connect via Ethernet cables
- The switch receives data packets
- It forwards each packet to the correct destination
- All connected devices communicate seamlessly
Ensures stable and efficient network performance.
Where it’s used
- Automation panels and control cabinets
• Production lines and factories
• Energy and utility systems
• Industrial IoT (IIoT) networks
• SCADA and monitoring systems
Advantages
- High port density (16 devices connected)
• Reliable operation in industrial conditions
• Easy installation (DIN rail mounting)
• No setup required (plug & play)
• Scalable network expansion
Important notes
- Requires proper industrial power supply
• Should be installed in a protected panel
• Designed for industrial Ethernet networks (not consumer use)
Example
You can connect:
• PLC
• HMI
• SCADA PC
• Multiple drives
• Sensor gateways
All through this single switch, forming a complete industrial network.
Simple explanation
Think of it as a “network power strip” for industrial systems—allowing many devices to plug in and communicate reliably over Ethernet, especially in large-scale installations.
